In the Quarter

Description of the book

This is a novel written by Robert W. Chambers in 1894, published the year before his seminal short story collection The King In Yellow. The story deals with life in the Quartier Latin, in Paris, where the merry art students live and move and have their being, and over which the halo of romance ever hangs; a peculiar people with whom we have spent many an entrancing hour in company with such volumes as "Trilby" and "A King in Yellow."
